About

I am an engineer and economist, both by education and conviction. My goal is to improve healthcare by digitalising repetitive processes and empower medical professionals to better treat their patients. To achieve this goal, I work on bringing together experts from multiple disciplines to tackle healthcare challenges in a team effort.
